pacifica Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 the riverside is a good pub. Do they still have live music. You might be thinking of The Riverside on Catchbar Lane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger123W Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Gone upmarket lately then............................. I did think that Hillsborough has gone up market and is now a desirable place to live and go out in ? Does anyone still go in the Blue Ball ? :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TORONTONY Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 There are more cameras around the Blue Ball than at Area 51, its incredible. Cameras???. What is that all about, lol. Used to love that pub in the seventies and right up to me leaving the country in November 1981. Mind you, just googling around Sheffield and 90% of my favourite pubs have gone, at least the Ball is still open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time I drive past the place me and the other half have a bit of a chuckle at all the cameras, I think some of the cameras are actually watching other cameras.

Deak Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 The gunshot and hammer incidents were quite some time ago!. The pub has recently re-opened having been closed for a 'spruce up'!. The present landlord has only been in for a few months but he seems a decent guy, is always sociable and keeps a good beer (imho). If more of the 'Decent'! people who visit/live locally to hillsborough were to patronise the premises, they may find they like the pub, then just maybe The Riverside (Masons) will return to being a nice place to call for a beer in a friendly atmosphere, that some people remember it as!.

sheffandy Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Had a nosey in here last night thru the windows and the interior has been completely stripped out, not a thing left. Skip in the rear yard with all the contents in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
